Interval Licensing, based in Seattle, owns the rights to information systems, computer science and communications technology developed in Silicon Valley by Interval Research, which Allen co-founded in the 1990s. Interval Research no longer exists.

The filing is a revision of the suit Interval Licensing filed in August against Facebook, Google, YouTube, AOL, Apple, Yahoo, Netflix, eBay, Office Depot, OfficeMax and Staples.

US District Court Judge Marsha Pechman in Seattle dismissed the original suit because it did not name the infringing products. Interval’s new suit is chock full of examples of the patents in question.
